5 Things I Never Travel Without

I would never want to travel without these things.

I always take these five things on a trip with me no matter where I am traveling because it does not matter the destination for these things. Of course, if you are traveling somewhere cold, you would pack completely different articles of clothing than if you were going to the beach. But these ten things never change.

1. A Good Book

The world underestimates the power of a good book. I love being lost in another world when I read. Books always seem to pass the time relatively quickly while I am traveling.

2. Picture Taking Device

I frequently joke that my love language is, pictures. I know this could not be true because it is not one of the five. I love being able to capture amazing memories with pictures. Candid photos are my absolute favorite because I like being able to see the emotions that a person was feeling at that exact moment.

3. My Stitch Stuffed Animal

So I am probably going to get made fun of for this one. I am a cuddle sleeper and I could not imagine not having this to cuddle with.

4. My Headphones

Music is my absolute best friend. I do not know what I would do without being able to listen to music. My love of music does not just disappear when I am on a trip. I always have my headphones in order to listen to my favorite songs.

5. My Phone

Okay sure, I bet everyone is thinking that this is an obvious answer, but I want to be able to share my wonderful experiences with my friends and family.

I love traveling. I love the new experiences and the new people I meet while I am on the trip. I want to travel the world and I would not do it without these five things.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
